      From phone calls and text messages to “an expensive painting” that Aras Agalarov gave Donald Trump for his birthday in 2016, the two families were in regular communication before and after the Trump Tower meeting — and during the transition. https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/trump-jr-and-emin-agalarov-stayed-in-touch-during-the?utm_term=.hxJ1nj92k#.uwyZ1YAag …pic.twitter.com/4BjFT99ZPA

      Two calls were placed between Trump Jr. and Emin's phones on June 6, 2016 — with a blocked call received by Jr. in between those two calls. https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/trump-jr-and-emin-agalarov-stayed-in-touch-during-the?utm_term=.waxwAdREp#.pco7YOr0z … / Three days later, the Trump Tower meeting took place.pic.twitter.com/yYdh4CkYu2

      From the Dems' report: The day after the Trump Tower meeting, Aras Agalarov gave Donald Trump "an expensive painting." Trump sent him an over-the-top thank-you note. (Note: "Email from Meredith McIver"!) https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/trump-jr-and-emin-agalarov-stayed-in-touch-during-the?utm_term=.neN7Q5dM2#.mjjWg0l6P …pic.twitter.com/CMin5XsGQU

          Now, here's the big thing. The Dems' report showed that weird Dec. 13, 2016, text—but the endnote references Nov. 10, 2016. Source tells me this is "a series" of text messages between Don Jr. and Emin that begin 11/10/16—and go through at least 12/13/16. https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/trump-jr-and-emin-agalarov-stayed-in-touch-during-the?utm_term=.neN7Q5dM2#.mjjWg0l6P …pic.twitter.com/NbiKZHli0u

          Also during the transition, Rhona Graff—Trump's longtime exec asst—fwd'ed an email to Bannon that she'd received from Rob Goldstone on behalf of Aras Agalarov. Her message to Bannon: "The PE [President Elect] knows Aras well. Rob is his rep in the US ...." https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/trump-jr-and-emin-agalarov-stayed-in-touch-during-the?utm_term=.hfA0DQAOX#.fc4aMBzZY …pic.twitter.com/Pafd1dFW6I

          A pricey gift from a foreign government to the President Elect looks like a bribe; could easily contain a listening device; could be a money laundering vehicle.

          Was technically just a candidate for the Republican nomination for president at that time, or, the presumptive Republican nominee.

          A thank you gift for taking the bait and agreeing to the conspiracy, the declaration of and launching of the attack on our democracy...they knew what they were doing. They owed the oligarchs too much money to say no. 1-Conspiracy 2-Treason 3-Obstruction of justice.

          Zero chance @realDonaldTrump authored exhibit 81. Its a coherent, and gracious “thank you.” I’m not disputing the note was sent just that someone else composed it for him.

          I suspect that Merideth McIver... the email mentioned in document production is Ivanka's incognito email handle. It would make the most since that Ivanka wrote "plagiarized" speech. Also trump has used "Merideth McIver"... as far back as 2007

          Who wrote that thank-you note? Sounds like a Hope Hicks joint.
